Hello everyone,
I just received a FitBit Charge 2 for Christmas and I am super excited! I have been reading some of the other chat boards and I see that most people say that the Charge 2 can be worn in the rain and will even survive the shower, but my question is if it holds up with a lot of sweat? I only ask because the charging port of the Charge 2 is directly on my skin and I tend to sweat quite a bit when I get moving. Please let me know!

@Rronate, it is very much sweat resistant. I sweat heavily during workouts, and it has never bother my Charge 2, which I have been wearing since August. After a workout & shower, I clean the band and tracker before putting it back on.

All Fitbit trackers are water-resistant, which means they are rain-proof and splash-proof and can stand up to even the sweatiest workout. Do not swim or shower with your tracker unless noted below:
- The Fitbit Flex 2 is swim and shower proof.
- The Fitbit Alta is shower proof.
Whenever you get your tracker wet, dry it thoroughly before putting it back on.
-
It's not recommended to shower or swim with the Charge 2. In case of getting damaged that way, warranty may not count.
Merry Christmas
